I am worried about money
Money stress is real, and God cares about your daily needs. He also gives us practical wisdom to follow.
What God's word says
31“Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ 32For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.
19My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
5The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit; and everyone who is hasty surely rushes to poverty.
25I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread.
5Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.” 6So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?”

A prayer you can pray
Father, you know what I need. I bring my money worries to you. Give me wisdom, open doors for work or help, and help me trust you for today. Teach me to be wise and generous. Amen.
A next step
Write down what comes in and goes out. Talk to someone you trust, and ask your church whether they have a benevolence fund or budgeting help.
